The Telerik Report Designer for Visual Studio provides a developer-friendly environment for creating and editing interactive ad-hoc reports. Reports stored in a class library and are embedded and distributed in .NET or touch-enabled mobile applications.

The Telerik standalone Report Designer (WPF-based) uses the latest UI standards to assist you with creating and analyzing interactive ad-hoc reports directly on your machine. Reports can be saved as XML files, shared via email, exported to any format, and printed.

Telerik Reporting is the first reporting tool to provide a WYSIWYG report canvas. Used in both report designers, the canvas offers drag and drop item rearrangement, codeless data binding, in-line editing and many wizards and tools to help you create and edit reports faster than ever.

Telerik Reporting provides a full set of customizable interactive and data-aware items to help you build reports in a fast and efficient manner:

OLAP crosstab, table, and list 20+ OLAP chart types, including sparklines Sub-reports 20+ barcode types Maps Picture box Panel

Shape Textbox and HTML Textbox Checkbox Label Report, page, detail and group sections with headers and footers

Many report items come with wizards, considerably simplifying your report setup. The wizards allow you to codelessly create reports, add data sources, manage interactivity, create charts, edit pivot groups, calculate values and style items.

Telerik Reporting provides complete programmatic control over your reports. Use the API to create, modify and work with reports, sections and report items with code.

Telerik Reporting converts your existing reports from Crystal Reports*, XtraReports* and Active Reports* - in minutes in most cases - when you already have a reporting tool in place.

* Crystal Reports is a trademark of SAP; Active Reports is a trademark of Data Dynamics; XtraReports is a trademark of Developer Express Inc.

In design-time, Telerik Reporting provides a Report Explorer and a Data Explorer which give you quick access and editing options to the report structure, parameters and filters, data sources and global styles.
